162. I didn't say sexual orientation is a choice.
This is how I see it.

You cannot control how you feel. If you are attracted to someone, you are just attracted to them.

There is a choice. There is a choice on whether you act on your feelings. The choice is whether you are going to be happy or not.

I think it is foolish to ignore that choice. You should be happy.

As I said, I have family members and friends who are gay. I love them all, and I am happy that they are happy. They should be.
